description |
In Malaysia, construction sector growing 8% to
RM170 billion in 2017, 8.2 % or RM140 billion in 2015 and 7.4%
t or RM166 billion in 2016.Construction activities at all phases
ofconstruction from land clearing to building structure generate
particulate matter emission (PM) that causes health impact to
human and environment. Many researchers have done to identify
and classified the particulate matter from its source of origins
emissions at construction site. PM2.5 is a fine particle is potential
to enter lung and bloodstream and lead to death. The objective of
this paper to identify the potential of PM2.5 release at
construction site, effect to receptor who exposed to it and
determine the other factor that contribute to distribute the PM2.5
at construction site. The construction activity proved to cause
PM2.5 emission effect to human health and environment.
Though, meteorology such as wind direction, temperature,
humidity, pressure, wind speed not only factor need to be
considerate that influences the distribution dispersion of PM2.5
but other factor such as chemical formation, dispersion process
and removal mechanism need to be measured. CDC 2013 studies,
showed every PM2.5 decreases of 10 ug/m3 of air it will decrease
15% in the risk of heart disease deaths. Malaysia showed the
annual mean concentration of fine particulate matter in urban
areas was exceeding the WHO air quality guideline with 17.3
ug/m3. The construction site needs to control and monitored its
emission of particulate matter by having a proper schedule
construction time management and modeling the distribution of
PM2.5 at site. |
